Best FREE CPE Oppurtunities? Is there a ISC2 Archive for Previous Webinars?

BestSelf — Wed, 04 Aug 2021 19:21:41 GMT

All,

I need to get 80 more CPE's by August 2022 to renew my CISSP. I normally go to numerous security conferences per year however did not do many in 2019 due to family issues. Then 2020-2021 was COVID and all of my family was out of work so my focus was surviving/extra shifts at work over thinking about CPEs. The other problem is my current job is not that open about me taking off for security conferences, basically I have to use my personal PTO but used most of the PTO due to when I had COVID earlier in the year. I have signed up for Defcon and plan to maximize this weekend.

What are some other good FREE ways to get CPEs? I know SANS has their webcast (https://www.sans.org/webcasts/) that generate certificate of completion after fully watching each video. However, I would also like to use other sources outside of SANS. I know there is a ISC2 newsletter that reports CPE opportunities but I noticed many require paying for the events. Does ISC2 have an free on demand/archive for previous free webcasts that would generate CPEs after completion?

Also, I know there is the 2 CPEs for the InfoSecurity Professional magazine, can I go back to the previous months to get CPEs or does it have to be only for current and future editions?

Appreciate any help as I really want to spend much of this Fall and Winter catching up on CPEs. I am getting tons of anxiety over this as do not want my CISSP to lapse.

Thank You.

Scroll to the bottom of the main (ISC)2 page and click on 'CPE Opportunities'.

You could take some of the free courses offered to members by (ISC)2.

https://www.isc2.org/development

View some of the Webinars that are posted:

https://www.isc2.org/News-and-Events/Webinars

Take quizzes from the InfoSec Professional magazine ((the archive goes back to 2018) Six issues a year for 3 years would give you about half the CPEs that you need)

https://www.isc2.org/InfoSecurity-Professional/Magazine-Archive

Don't forget to claim CPEs for any vendor presentations that you may have attended online.

You could also join one of the free chapter events that are being held online. A number of chapters post their events on the community.

Hope this helps

Varonis always has good webinars that have CPEs:

https://www.varonis.com/webinars/

Proofpoint also has some ways to get CPEs (but I have always found that their sales people tend to be a bit pushy):

I would say that if you have the time you could easily get the 80 hrs with the SANS Webcast/Conference archive and also RSA Conference archives. Both are free, Just require registering.

You can go back and do previous quarter ISC Magazines. It's a good start at 2/each.

These are all great resources. Since you specifically asked about (ISC)2 Archived webinars, I'll include a link to that as well as some other resources for earning CPE credits.

(ISC)2 Webinars: https://www.isc2.org/News-and-Events/Webinars
- (ISC)2 Think Tanks are more "roundtable type discussions" on topics: https://www.isc2.org/News-and-Events/Webinars/ThinkTank (there are currently 261 recordings and 2 upcoming)
- (ISC)2 Security Briefings are usually sponsored and have one to two presenters: https://www.isc2.org/News-and-Events/Webinars/Security-Briefing (there are 285 past webinars to watch and 7 upcoming)
All (ISC)2 CPE Credit Opportunities (including PDI free for members): https://www.isc2.org/Membership/CPE-Opportunities

I'm in the same boat... in June I realized that I needed over 80 CPEs by the end of this year (2021) to keep my CISSP. I've really been impressed with the training, webinars, and the magazine. I'm down to needing under 40 more CPEs, and I'm seriously thing about doing the CCSP training to fill that gap and get that cert.

@lance_nehring that's a good idea - earn CPE credits and get a new certification.

Others looking to earn CPE credits: just a reminder to register for (ISC)2 Security Congress in October.

congress.isc2.org

You can earn up to 20 CPE credits live and then earn even more if you watch the rest of the sessions before the end of 2021. They'll be automatically credited to your account.

Hi,

You can watch webinars at https://brighttalk.com/. There are plenty of them that can provide you with additional CPEs.

Just check that it is organized by ISC2. For example, https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/5385/519058

ershubhra_gupta — Thu, 23 Dec 2021 16:09:49 GMT

Yes you can go to all previous archived ISC2 Professional magazine, if not covered ever. Ater going through Magazine, you need to take a quiz and passing of this quiz rewards you 2 CPE.

Hope this help!!!

Stay Safe and Healthy

Hello members,

I am wondering if anyone has used CompTIA resources as for CPEs. I am in their Train-the-Trainer series and earned many exam vouchers that I will start taking in July.

I know CompTIA accepts (isc)^2 CPE (i.e., from BrightTalk), so I imagine it may be reciprocal.

I just recently became a member of ISC2 and this question, as well as as, the given answers have greatly helped me better understand the CPE requirement and available opportunities. Thanks.
